Who Should I Start? River Cracraft or Rakim Jarrett

Friday, March 21, 10:31 PM

The Seattle Seahawks announced on Friday that they have signed free-agent wide receiver River Cracraft to an undisclosed deal. The Seahawks continue to add receiver depth this offseason after releasing veteran Tyler Lockett and trading DK Metcalf to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Cracraft will merely be providing depth at the position behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Cooper Kupp and Marquez Valdes-Scantling. The 30-year-old veteran and former undrafted free agent out of Washington State heads to the NFC West after spending the last three years with the Miami Dolphins, where he caught only 25 passes on 35 targets for 289 yards and three touchdowns in 29 games (one start). In his seven seasons in the NFL, Cracraft has 32 receptions, 374 yards and three touchdowns on 46 targets in 53 games (two starts). He will continue to be off the fantasy radar in all leagues in 2025 in Seattle.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Rakim Jarrett made his season debut against the Atlanta Falcons last week. Jarrett hauled in all three of his targets for 58 yards in the loss. Normally, Jarrett would serve as depth, but the Bucs are extremely banged up at wideout. Both Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (ankle) are unavailable for Week 9. Also, Sterling Shepard (hamstring) and Jalen McMillan (hamstring) are listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs. That means, Jarrett and Trey Palmer could end up being the top wideouts for the Bucs this week. Jarrett only saw 27 percent of the snaps last week and still played fairly well. Fantasy managers who plan to start Shepard or McMillan might want to snag Jarrett just in case they sit out.
